Additionally, the quality of food that you find at a market is often much better because it was selected for the market and presented much closer to picking time, vs the gross that was shipped off for warehousing for two weeks before sent to a storefront a week before it starts to go bad

Winter is kinda wild too. The fact that the planet is tilted just enough to make it cold part of the year, but not so cold that it kills everything, and many plants and animals have integrated this into their life cycles.
Halo. I hate watched it and then got annoyed that they cancelled it right at the point that they actually got to the damn Halo.
Wait, is this the original comic? It’s so much clearer than the meme template
7.1 was the first MacOS that apple charged for, nominally to cover the cost of the CDs. 7.1, 7.5 and 7.6 all cost $29, but you could get free installers from many of the Mac magazines.
8.0, 8.5 and 9.0 were $99
10.0 was $129
10.1 was free, but a lot of stores charged a handling fee. I remember picking up my copy from CompUSA for ten cents.
10.2 - 10.5 were $130 upgrades, but there were numerous ways to get it for free. I don’t think I ever actually paid for any of them.
10.6 and 10.7 were both $30
10.8 was $20
10.9 and later were all free
MacOS never had licenses, owning a mac was the license because you couldn’t run it on non-apple hardware* until they switched to Intel. I got OS8 from a copy of MacAddict.
* not counting Gil Amelio’s ill-fated hardware mac clone program
And that $30 was largely for the physical media, in a time before broadband distribution. Apple never had license keys, if you owned a mac you were licensed.

corner radius on rounded edges is too large
Oh it gets worse, the radius is also inconsistent across different kinds of windows and applications
We need to roll back all OS UI designs to 2010 until we can figure out what the hell is going on. Bring back windows 7.
Theres a theory that Apple released this a year early and unfinished because Apple Intelligence is so far over its head that they had nothing else to debut
Now now, Horizon also has Varl.
Whoa, a L4D meme? How vintage!
2·4 months agoOh the laws are completely unenforceable, they’re basically just a blank check to go after any website the ruling class dislikes.
The article names multiple sites that have already shut down due to the UKs law
Eugen issued a statement that Mastodon is physically incapable of implementing age verification and that thedecentralized nature of the fediverse means there is no central authority that can block regions which define these laws.
IANAL, but I imagine under the laws, they would go after individual instance owners to mandate verification. The laws have no provision for third party software, so it would fall to the courts, but most instances don’t have the funds to fight it.
This is one of my favorite character tropes. Like Shia Lebouf’s character in I Robot, or Spock in Star Trek 4.
Meatballs in a slowcooker full of bbq sauce is the ultimate in potluck cuisine. I sometimes make that shit just for myself
